Abstract: A method and a device for establishing a connection between a first and a second subscriber in a telecommunications network is specified, in which the address of the second subscriber or an identification assigned to them with which the address can be determined is contained in an attribute of an object OBJ intended for use on a computer PC. With the aid of a function F the address or identification is read out from the attribute and the connection is subsequently established automatically.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for controlling a link in a telecommunication network, whereby a model of connection is produced in a programmable computer and a measure to be implemented in the telecommunication network is derived with the aid of the behavior of the model based on a measure already implemented. The invention also relates to a network configuration for bearer independent call control networks.

Abstract: A measuring circuit for measuring a capacitance according to the discharge method includes a measuring circuit input. A constant voltage source charges a capacitor to be measured at the measuring circuit input. The capacitor discharges through a discharge resistor with a known resistance being connected to the capacitor. At least one switch is connected between the capacitor and the constant voltage source. A flow control is connected to the at least one switch for controlling the at least one switch. A comparator is connected to the capacitor. A counter is connected to the comparator for counting clock pulses during a discharge. A PTC element is connected to the measuring circuit input in series with the capacitor. A monitoring device is connected to the capacitor.

Abstract: In multimeters having a plurality of input connections there is a danger of the measuring conductors being incorrectly connected in such a manner that the setting of the measurement range switch does not correspond to the input connections to which contact is made. In order to avoid damage which may be caused by making an incorrect contact to the input connections, an electrically and/or mechanically acting disabling device is coupled to the measurement range switch for permitting a disabling of particular input connections. The disabling is carried out in such a manner that contact can always only be made to that input connection for receiving a test signal through the measuring conductors, to which a measurable variable is assigned that corresponds to the measurable variable set with the measurement range switch.
